Alarms List: In Detail
The Alarms window displays all alarms at any connected site. When an alarm occurs, you will see the time that
the alarm occurred, which site, unit and channel registered the alarm, whether it is a critical or warning alarm,
and any corresponding message.
From the Alarms for drop-down menu, you can choose to view all alarms, or only those at the Selected Site or
Selected Unit.
To clear the currently displayed alarms, click the Clear Alarms button in the Alarms window toolbar. This will
remove all the alarms from this window, but if logging is set up and enabled for this site, the alarm will remain in
the log.
